Q

Proliferative Phase of Wound Healing

A

4-22 days peak 2-3 weeks bulk of scar tissue is formed
- Rebuild damaged structures and strengthen wound
- Proliferation of fibroblasts–> drawn in by platelets macrophages–> lay down collagen

  • Clinical Sign= decrease in pain, erythema resolved, no active effusion, increase pain free AROM/PROM, pain is felt at point in tissue resistance
  • Management= controlled motion phase
    tolerance of increased strengthening , create a strong extensible scar

    Communication
    Ability to Gauge responses
    Parental facilitators
    Neuro impairments can be more involved than orthopedic impairments
41
Q

Neuromatrix Theory of pain

A
  1. The brain and spinal cord are what produce the pain not the tissue damage
  2. Various parts of the CNS work together to produce pain

Nociception + threat= pain

42
Q

Nociceptive pain

A

Localized and proportionate to injury

43
Q

Nociplastic/central sensitization

A

Amplification of neural signaling in the CNS that creates pain hypersensitivity

44
Q

Central Sensitization

Diffuse Pain
>40 on CSI

45
Q

Pain Catastrophizing Scale

A
  1. Rumination= attention
  2. Magnification = exaggeration
  3. Helplessness= low self-efficacy
46
Q

Stress stages

A
  1. Stimuli from one or more of the 5 senses are sent to the brain
  2. The brain deciphers the stimulus as either a threat or non-threat
  3. The body stays activated or aroused until the threat is over
  4. The body returns to homeostasis once threat is gone
  • Cortisol inhibits hypothalamus and pituitary
  • Low cortisol levels impair ability to control inflammation
47
Q

What are the cortical changes in response to pain?

A
  • Size changes: body representation grows
  • With cortical changes the discrimination usually gets bigger

  • USE METAPHORSS , use layman’s terms, they aren’t alone
52
Q

Primary radiation= patient attenuates the beam

54
Q

Concepts of radiodensity, radiolucency, shading of various tissues/materials on radiograph: including identifying on radiographs

A

Radiodensity= combo of physical qualities of an object that determine how much radiation it absorbs from the x-ray beam

61
Q

What is the Search pattern and What does the “ABCS” mean?

A
  • Search pattern= describes the methodology of looking at an image in an organized fashion, helps ensure that everything possible to see has been accounted for, equivalent to gathering data

A= alignment - anatomy + normal structures/landmarks (bone, organn, BV)
B= Bone Density- fracture, dislocation, deformity
C= cartilage- integrity, thickness, alignment, spacing
S= soft tissue- symmetry, masses, enlarge lymph nodes, cysts

62
Q

A= Alignment

A

A: Alignment
Alignment analysis includes evaluation of each item in the following three lists.

  1. General Skeletal Architecture
    Assess gross normal size, appearance, and number of bones.
  2. General Contour of Bone
    - Smooth continuous cortical outlines
    - Abnormalities- cortical, avulsions, impaction fractures, spurs, markings of past surgical sites
  3. Alignment of Bones Relative to Adjacent Bones
    Assess articulating bones for normal positional relationships.
    - Abnormalities= fractures, joint subluxation or dislocation
63
Q

B= Bone Density

A

General bone density- sufficient contrast, shades of gray soft tissue and bones, enough contrast within each bone, between cortical shelf and cancellous center
- Abnormalities= general loss of bone density- bad contrast, thinning or absence of cortical margins

Textual Abnormalities= appearance of trabeculae altered= may look thin, lacy, delicate, coarsened, smudged, fluffy

Local bone density changes= sclerosis in areas with increased stress, like weight bearing surfaces or ligament/tendon attachments
- Abnormalities= excessive sclerosis, reactive sclerosis that walls off lesions, osteophytes

64
Q

C= Cartilage

A

C: Cartilage Spaces
Joint space Width- well preserved - means normal cartilage/disc thickness
- Abnormalities= decreased joint space- could imply degenerative or traumatic

Subchondral Bone- smooth surface
-Abnormalities= excessive sclerosis, erosion

Epiphyseal Plates- normal size relative to epiphysis and skeletal age
- Abnormalities= compare contralateral for changes in thickness

65
Q

S= Soft Tissue

A

Muscle- normal size
-Abnormalities= gross wasting or swelling

Fat pads and fat lines- radiolucent crescent parallel to bone, radiolucent lines parallels to length of muscle
- Abnormalities= displacement of fat pads into soft tissue= joint effusion; elevation or blurring of fat pads means swelling

Joint capsules- normally indistinct
- Abnormalities=observe whether effusion or hemorrhage distends capsule

Periosteum- normally indistinct, solid periosteal reaction is normal in fracture healing
-Abnormalities= look at reactions- solid, laminated, onionskin, spiculated, sunburst

Miscellaneous soft tissue findings- soft tissues are normally water-density shade of gray
- Abnormalities= foreign bodies seen by radiodensity, gas bubbles are radiolucent, calcifications are radiopaque

  2. Indications
  3. Advantages
  4. Disadvantages
  5. Limitations
A

  2. Indications: evaluation of spinal stenosis, helpful when combined with diskogram- condition of intervertebral disc
    3.Advantages: less expensive than MRI, less claustrophobic, less expensive than MRI, can image soft tissue and osseous structures in one series
  3. Disadvantages: volume averaging of radiodensities within a voxel if pathological only gives one shade of gray, high radiation exposure
  4. Limitations: Determining histological makeup of imaged tissues, tissues with similar radiodensities may be given the same shade of gray
88
Q

Principles of MR

A

Based on measurements of energy emitted from hydrogen nuclei after their stimulation by radiofrequency signals, energy emitted varies according from which tissues it comes from

  • Use magnetic field
89
Q

T1 Weight MRI

A
  • T1 weighted images show great anatomical detail and tend to highlight structures rich in fat
  • Short time to repetition and time to echo times, signals caught early
  • Tissues with high free water content appear darker
90
Q

T2 Weight MRI

A
  • T2 images are grainer and emphasize structure with high free water content and inflammation
  • Makes fluid brighter
  • long time to repetition and time to echo
  • very helpful in detecting inflammation
91
Q

T1 vs T2 weighted MRI

A
92
Q

What are the clinical uses of MRI? Indications? Limitations? Contraindications

A
  1. Clinical indications: soft tissue injuries, bone tumors, stress fractures, osteomyelitis, avascular necrosis, intervertebral disc pathology, detecting changes in bone marrow, arthroscopy for meniscal tears
    - Best modality for evaluating disc herniations and other nerve root impingements
  2. Limitations: not good at imaging cortical bone, time needed to produce image, claustrophobia, and need for sedation, orthopedic hardware is not ferromagnetic so could distort image, high cost
  3. Contraindications: magnetic field can lift heavy metal objects in close proximity, surgical clips, brain aneurysm clips, can displace clips, pacemakers may malfunction
93
Q

MRI advantages

A

Greater contrast resolution for soft tissue, image organs surrounded by dense bone, no ionizing radiation, less risk missing disease processes because of all the sequences used

94
Q

CT Advantages

A

Less expensive, greater availability, faster imaging times, less operator time involved in selecting imaging parameters, thinner slices, less loss of image quality due to motion, greater power resolution when imaging cortical bone, easier imaging of individuals with metal implants

95
Q

How does an Ultrasound work

A

waves reflected from the body tissues cause transducer crystal to deform- electrical charges on opposing surfaces of crystal- negative or positive- creation of electricity- piezolectric effect

96
Q

What are the clinical uses of US
Indications
Advantages
limitations
disadvantages

A

Indications: tendons can stress test ligaments during inflammation of nerves, pediatric joint, developmental dysplasia can predict fracture risk of strength of bone

Advantages: high resolution, low cost, safety of use to modify the examination, joint may be place in different positions, can be a dynamic test performed in real time, able to stress ligaments, can apply traction, resisted muscle contractions or passive stretch during

Limitations: operator dependent, does not penetrate bone so structures deep to bone are not seen
